Didnt see a topic about this here so thought to open it now.

I Just had a dream in a dream:

I was talking with my manager, I was at her home in Italy. I dont remember what she was telling me but it was something helpful about life.
I go outside in the garden and I get stuck. I cant move my hands. I look down at my body : im in a beautiful dress and im tied like a witch to some wood. Flames at my legs, feeling them closer to my hands. I look around, its the capital? I see mosks all around. Im confused.

I wake up in my bed right here where I am in reality atm. But im with my boyfriend (irl he is not here now). I tell him i had such a weird bad dream and ask for his confort, to hug. He was on top of me and disturbed me and then i realized it was yet another dream so i woke up for real

Not looking for an interpretation here. I wonder what it means to dream in a dream? Did it happen to you?

It occurred to me several times. In many times I wanted, too, to discuss the content of the inward dream with someone on the "outer" dream, or at least thought about it. When in highschool, not wanting to get up to school, I used to dream I got up, got dressed and everything, then discover I was still in bed, and this too could have yet been a dream. Such scenarios happened several times for me.

What can I say about this incredible piece of writing?...Let me indulge in to it once more...


A Dream Within a Dream / by Edgar Allan Poe


Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
Thus much let me avow —
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
In a night, or in a day,
In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar
Of a surf-tormented shore,
And I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand —
How few! yet how they creep
Through my fingers to the deep,
While I weep — while I weep!
O God! Can I not grasp
Them with a tighter clasp?
O God! can I not save
One from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?

I don't want to start analyzing the poem. We are not in class. I don't want to be teaching here. But search for this poem! Read what the poet is talking about! Once you find out, you can never forget it!

I hold within my hand
Grains of the golden sand
How few! yet how they creep!
Through my fingers to the deep!

It happened to me several times. Bot not only did I dream in a dream, but I died in the dream and woke up in what was to my surprise another dream, and then I died there too and woke up in another dream, and I freaked out, cuz I became aware that I have no clue how to wake up into this reality. I can't remember how I got back here again in the end but it was a scary experience.

DeepBlue, I had that happen to me too! I wonder whether such dreams are a message that what we call reality is a dream as well...

Yes, was asking myself the same question. I belive it is a kind of dream that we will eventually wake up from.
It would just be nice to know, why this dream (our reality) is so different from other dreams and why we spend so much time here or at least it appears we do.

Maybe time is subjective. Maybe in the afterlife the long years we spent here would seem like minutes. who knows.
